Just Add Ink 264

Well, for me, May has flown by as far as Just Add Ink challenges are concerned. It seems no time at all since I was nervously posting my first ever challenge as a guest designer and now, here we are at the last challenge for May. Thanks so much for the great month I've had with you!

I've loved every challenge and this week's sketch challenge is no exception.

When I look back over the month, I see that butterflies have featured each week! Accidental, I promise!

This butterfly was a bit experimental. I stamped it then coloured it with Marina Mist, Perfect Plum and Elegant Eggplant, highlighted it with a silver gel pen then covered it in Glossy Accents. Pretty happy with how it turned out, really. The pearls are a soft blue and the under butterfly is Perfect Plum.

I made the Eggplant border by cutting a film strip die that I have, then cutting it lengthways to get that cool little dotty border to tie in with the circle dots around the butterfly.
